Re: licorice for adrenals

[Guest guest]

:

" If the fluid retention started after starting the licorice, then

I would consider stopping the licorice to see if it resolves. "

It did start around the time of licorice. I just didn't connect it until now,

because that is also about the time I started iodine. Well, I quit the iodine

some time ago, and the fluid retention hasn't gone away.

This morning I was awfully fatigued again with no stress tolerance and on the

verge of tears for now reason. I took a glandular, and within 45 min. my mood

was so much better and I had some energy all day. It just makes me feel a little

anxious (probably the adrenaline). When the HC comes, I won't use the

glandulars, because of the anxiety. In the meantime, it looks like 1 a day might

get me through! :-)

Thanks,

Another thing about licorice. I sometimes got really wild, sudden

bouts of anxiety after taking it. I think this is due to liver phase

1 issues - when I avoided exposures to things that caused phase 1

issues for me, the licorice was fine.

Do you have a fast phase 1? I'm wondering if some of your hyper

symptoms could have been related to the licorice vs the iodine?

For me, this effect of the licorice was really obvious because it

was a large and sudden effect a short time after taking licorice.

Might not always be so easy to tie to the licorice, though - could

be more delayed or sporadic, I suppose.

For now, maybe you could split the glandular and take half at a time

with less anxiety? Don't know whether that will help as much with

stress tolerance. Maybe what you are doing is good enough until

you get HC...
